There's a few things I like about this beat but it doesn't really have much direction, any feedback is needed. Soundcloud

While it's not perfect, this is still a really cool track. The only thing I wasn't really a fan of was that stabby sound you have in the intro. Thought it sounded a bit cheesy/generic.

The arp? Yea it's super cheesy and generic, needs another layer of melody too, something catchy. What about the arrangement? I feel like it's super weird.

I really liked it. Only thing I would say is to beef up the basses a bit.
Other than that its a cool funky sort of tune. Should be quite sweet when it's finished.

I guess you can call it an arp, all the arpeggiators i've used modulate the pitch of the note your playing as well as the rate. Nothing really sprang to mind with the arrangement of the track. I guess the length of the notes used in that arp during the intro and the break throw you a bit off beat, but that's something I didn't even recognize until you mentioned the structure of the song being faulty.

I like what you have but it just feels like its unfinished at the moment:
I think just more basses are required :3

It does feel unfinished and I'm trying to fix that, It needs more sub, any tips for layering/Eqing the sub? (I'm newb)
